SP, LJP, RJD tie-up in Maharashtra too

For the first time, the Lok Jan Shakti Party, along with the Samajwadi Party and the Rashtriya Janata Dal will come together in Maharashtra to contest over 10 seats.

On April 24, leaders of these parties, Ram Vilas Paswan, Mulayam Singh and Lalu Prasad, will address a joint rally in Mumbai. The alliance hopes to tap the substantial north Indian voters in Mumbai, apart from the Scheduled Castes and Muslims.

The LJP will field candidates in Jalna and Thane or Kalyan.

While the alliance will not field a candidate against Ms. Priya Dutt of the Congress in Mumbai North Central, the SP’s Abu Asim Azmi has already started campaigning in Mumbai North West.

SP spokesman Abdul Kadir Choudhary said: “We are putting up candidates where the Congress is weak. We don’t want to divide the secular vote.” The SP had hoped that either the Congress or the Nationalist Congress Party would support Mr. Azmi but that did not happen.

Mumbai RJD chief Sayyed Shaukat Ahmed said the party would field two candidates in South Central and North East Mumbai, where there are many Muslims and north Indians.

The SP will field candidates in three constituencies in Vidarbha, apart from Aurangabad and Nandurbar, Mumbai North West, North and South.
